sleet getting heavier here now with slight slushy deposits on outhouse roof. The ppn is moving too quick at this rate we will be home and dry before 3am???

[Schmac]

haha and mine wow.

Plus turning to snow now finally.

Blimey... Everyone's getting new weather stations!... Which make/model did you get?

Which one did you get Khodds? (or have you gone to already?!)

I'm getting the WMR80 - Oregon Scientific. Is it wrong to be so excited?! What are you all getting?

[Schmac]

Cool! What are you getting? I'm getting the WMR80.

Same model I had before the removal men trashed it! A Watson W-8681

http://www.amazon.co.uk/W-8681-Wireless-Weather-Station/dp/B001063PXC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328829931&sr=8-1

I found it to be pretty good for the price.

Would love a Davis, but couldn't justify spending £700+!

[Mumbles]

starting to setlle here..still seems like quite wet snow...need the big fluffy snow methinks!

Turned to snow for about 10 minutes now its rain again :lol:

0.7c, dp at -0.3c

[Aceman]

still snowing here, one more glass of port then off to bed.

really hope everyone wakes up to at least a dusting

[khodds]

Ooh - the 8681 looks good. Wish I'd known the price on Amazon - everyone else seemed more expensive. Nevermind. I miss my old one - the temp sensore gave up and I broke the anemometer by accident! Oops. Lets hope the post gets thru tomorrow

[Wilxy]

And its starting to settle its not even wet snow and its setting on the roads

[Schmac]

I'm getting the WMR80 - Oregon Scientific. Is it wrong to be so excited?! What are you all getting?

Just had a look at that one... Looks like a nice one!

Lets hope we all get a chance to test them all properly before the winters over!

Just up the road from Lynux and its beginning to snow, very fine, but settling on cars

20 mins of extraordinary snowfall here and still going strong.. must be under that tiny red blob on the meto radar !

Probably the back end of it now but maybe some flurries to come later...

At least if it keeps going I'll see something of excitement before it all clears off! That blob is heading right for me.

Too true - armageddon snowfall next week please :lol:

[Wilxy]

this is very heavy now its really starting to settle.

Nice one Tom. I would have loved a Davis, but I wanted the one where the anemometer wasn't part of the ISS... Couldn't justify it! Just moved house, so lots of other things to spend money on first!

Maybe I'll upgrade in a few years (if we keep getting cold winters!).

[Nights King]

Just turned to wet snow here! Finaly.

now we need it to continue

[noggin]

Well, it's turned to snow now. It's so blooming wet though, I wonder if it will settle? :unsure:

[khodds]

Right, off to bed for me. Hope everyone wakes up to a good covering tomorrow!

[Mark Parsons]

I think you lot up in North Somerset/Bristol should stay up, think you got something nice coming!

[Frosty_wsm]

All these reports of settling snow yet so many earlier were dismissing any chance of that happening! :-)

[Wilxy]

im now really happy.

Still light drizzle here lol, no sign of a flake yet.
